by Ben Shuck star star star star star

This board was more than i was expecting, Had ticked all boxes for me and has that hyper card that also looks sick worth the extra bucks for that alone would recommend for anyone wanting a high end board for overclocking bios seems very easy to use so 5 stars for me
